The notion that Grover Norquist is a secret agent for the Muslim Brotherhood is preposterous. Then again, check the source. But that's not the end of it - there are all sorts of crazy conspiracy theories out there all the time. What makes this one particularly interesting is that the NRA is taking it seriously enough that they are "investigating" the matter. I would think that an established organization like the NRA, whether or not you agree with their politics, would be able to dismiss and simply ignore such a thing. So I wondered why they aren't. Then it occurred to me: there's probably considerable overlap between Glenn Beck listeners and NRA membership, and people that believe in wild conspiracy theories and those that feel the need to keep three machine guns in their closet. I would imagine that Wayne LaPierre shook is head and the ridiculousness of it all, but felt no choice but to "investigate" the matter further, lest it cause too much strife on the reservation. What interesting times we live in.
